caPE FAREWELL
Gary Hume

"Hume was born in 1962, and is in the generation of British artists who graduated from Goldsmiths College, London, and came to prominence in the early 1990s. Internationally recognised in both Europe and America, Hume has exhibited extensively around the world.

In 1996 he was the British representative at the São Paulo Biennale and in the same year was nominated for the Turner Prize.

"Cape Farewell, in its ambitions and methods, represents a more open exercise than communication about climate change. It’s a true
expedition of untramelled minds into a changing world of uncertain forms and feelings.

Its outcomes were never predetermined in methodology or propagandistic in intent."
